Are environmentalists anything more than anti-technology, anti-prosperity luddites at this point? The cleanest and safest things for our environment and our society are fracking, nuclear energy, and better living through chemistry, and they’re pretty much opposed to all of them, consistently in favor of either primitivism or embracing technologies that are so hopelessly useless that they cannot function without heavy subsidization, subsidization which makes them worse for the environment than even conventional solutions are.
